Time Capsule is Marxman's second and final album.[3] It was released in the United Kingdom on 4 November 1996. It is considered to be angrier, but musically more conservative, than their debut album, 33 Revolutions per Minute.[4] The band disbanded after releasing the album, with Oisin Lunny going on to have limited success as a solo artist.[4] Time Capsule failed to chart.[5]
Critical reception
[edit]The Irish Times called the album "introspective in mood and tone, mixing some beautifully soulful touches with everything from guitar to swing."[6]
